He takes a deep breath and pats the ground next to him. "I am smiling, yes? I seem like I am happy. I am not happy, I am full of anger and hatred, and rage. I am full of greed and gluttony, and violent tendencies..."
Carrion snarls, his flesh boiling like soup. He turns to face him, his bloodshot eyes staring into his eyes.
"Are people supposed to not show their emotions and pretend to be just fine all of the time?" He sits down next to them, looking over to them.
Uzui remains calm, looking more disappointed than anything else, "Sit down, eat, you don't have to calm down, but you need to think for a moment. Acting without thinking is what got Atticus hurt in the first place. What happened to the god that cherished life."

"See what I just did? That was the limit of my physical prowess at the moment, taxman." They feel a weak flick to the chin.
"I'm a sniper. I was actually on the job already, but a proper death must be poetic." He doesn't stop Carrion. "I could do it myself, but if you want to do it I'll give you half the payout. Not that you need 1,500 platinum, but fair is fair."
They wave their hands in the air like that is going to do anything, like waving away smoke. "That's sad," he huffs and fixes his suit jacket, "and that's repoman, not taxman."
Carrion closes the file quietly. "May I ask you something?" he asks.
"Fair enough." A sigh. "I'm sorry if I'm irritable, I am very hungry. I don't have a mouth to eat, you see."
"If you wish to know the answer, please do." He checks the bullets in his rifle. The clip isn't full, and each bullet is slightly different.

"Yep." he chuckles. "Everyone does it all the time," he shrugs. "Not much we can do."
Carrion grumbles and sits down, his bloated body eating the feast before him, but begrudgingly.

He tilts his head an unnatural amount "Is that what I'm supposed to do if I want to pass as human?"
"Good. You know to listen still." He bows his head, "You shouldn't kill Helianth, and before you react with an outraged response, I want to explain why. Are you willing to listen, and not just hear?"

He thinks for a moment before looking at the dirt and grinning madly, "I got an ideaaaa!" he said in a sing-song voice. He takes another stick and begins to draw out a circle with complex symbols around it. He points at its center, "Stand in the middle of this all." he grins.
"Am I a bad god?" he twiddles his thumbs and sighs "That sounds vain I suppose.."

"Indeed. Pretend to be smiling even if you are rotting inside," he chuckles.
"Why?..." he tilts his head.
He thinks about it before a moment, before smiling just a bit "Like this?"
"Because their son would be broken." He looks up at them, "And do you think anyone is deserving of that? Especially after what you've been through?"
He nods "There you go. Lookin' good!"
"You don't know what I have been through.." He snarls, his bloated body rearing up "You have NO. IDEA."
The smile fades after a moment "Okay... I can do that."
"I don't, but would you take a child from their parent while they were still young? Tim's already been through that twice." He pours them both a cup of tea, "You know what you've been through, answer honestly for me."

A bit of contemplative humming. "Not until you tell me what this is going to do."
He answers as soon as Carrion is done speaking. No hesitation. "Yes. My honest opinion is that you are a worthless failure of a deity, and you have not done anything to change that. That doesn't mean you're a bad person, or even a disappointing one. But you asked if you were a bad god, and you are far from fit for the role."

He pulls out another file and writes something down in it. "Those Morgana people want you dead, by the way. I didn't take the job, despite its impressive pay.
